Cycle September

Want to get your employees involved in something that's good for our community and employee's health? Try biking to work, meetings, errands or just for fun by joining the Cycle September Challenge! Cycle September is very similar to Bike Month in May…1. Sign up for the challenge on the Shasta Love to Ride website… 2. Opt in for Cycle September... 3. Hop on your bike!

The more rides you log, the more chances you have to win great prizes through weekly and final drawings. With school starting back up, we not only want to see workplaces commute by bike, we also want to encourage students to ride to and from school and really anytime for fun, fitness, and with friends. The schools who have active participation (with at least 10 students on a team) will be entered into a drawing at the end of September to win a bike rack for their school!

The challenge is open to all Shasta County high schools, colleges, workplaces, social groups, and individuals 13 years of age and older. The goal of the challenge is to get more people to experience the joys of riding a bike. The benefits of riding a bike include improved mental and physical health, money saved on gas and car repairs, reduced carbon emission/footprint, and countless others!
